It's so funny how people latch onto marketing words. 5 years ago I hadn't heard a single person say the "consistency" brag on PRS ever. Yes, they were nice guitars, but they weren't described specifically as "consistent". Now in the last couple of years I've heard it a hundred times, people just parroting the same description. Company has been around for 30 years and now "organically" has the reputation of being "consistently flawless". Pretty much any major brand's $2000 and up guitars are "consistently flawless" to the same degree, but somehow PRS gave itself its own nickname here. Super weird.
@@CyberneticArgumentCreator I agree that most boutique guitars at that price are consistent and flawless, but PRS is pretty much the most popular "boutique" brand. There are plenty of other brands that are flawless, but either more expensive or not as accessible. PRS you can find in almost any guitar store. But unlike Gibson and Fender, whose quality can be all over the place--even at top dollar instruments--even the lower end PRS guitars are consistently great. I've never heard PRS mention this as a selling point, so I don't agree that it was a marketing thing. It's just something that is really apparent with PRS. More than other brands.
Ive only owned two prs and recently in 2021 i had a green quilted top single cut. It was a nice guitar but it was like a reliable, predictable clean piece. It was kinda boring. I got more than i paid due to supply issues. I have a les paul custom thats exceptional for a gibson. Its wild in comparison. Its has attitude. Thats why i dont like prs.
Great review. Love the detail and the fact that you were struggling to find cons on this one. Also appreciated the quick comparisons with the other guitars. The smaller clips between switching to the next guitar makes it so much easier to hear subtle differences than reviews that play three minute covers on each guitar. Would love to see/hear a split screen of even just quick hits on chords or five second riffs so that by the time I hear the third guitar I haven’t forgotten how the first one sounded. Great cover at the end too. Well done.
I appreciate the quality of these reviews at different price points. Been looking at this guitar for a while and this video really helped. Love the tele, but wanting something a little more different. I like this one.
I bought one. I love it. I usually don't like Swiss army knife guitars, but this MK signature is in a league all its own. It sounds fantastic. And, it's so comfy to play. I play it for hours at a time when I have the time to do so. One of my favorite guitars, and I have too many guitars lol. In fact, I like it so much, I want to buy the green one too. I have the white one.
Thanks for the review & demo, will check out more of your videos. Have this guitar on its way to me in vintage white, got a great Memorial Day deal. Surprised that the soft case looks like it doesn’t have any neck support, but you mentioned something supporting the headstock? Looking forward to this guitar.
thank you! I love this guitar. As for the case, it has a neck rest like most good cases, and it comes with a styrofoam cutout that holds the headstock in place, but I think that was mostly for shipping. Either way, I'd probably just keep it.
@@BeastMadeReviews I think they are quite special. Both of them. But to me, the pinnacle is the Myles signature model. They are absolutely extraordinary in my opinion.
I try to keep an open mind with guitars but one thing I always try to find out when considering buying a guitar; Can it do Iron Maiden? I think that with the right amp, this one can.
You say you dont like the tuners, which is fine, but is it the look or do they not keep good tune? I had the same tuners on a core silver sky and while it kept better tune than any strat or any other guitar I had owned, my silver sky se's keep better tune than the core for some reason
I think it's mostly the tuning stability. I had some issues with it staying in tune, but it could be other things contributing to that. I think they look fine. That's wild that the SE keeps better tuning!
Huge Myles fan, huge PRS fan, but for that money, a gig bag - no matter how great, kind of is a shitty thing to do in my opinion. That being said, great video man! Thanks 🙏
Yeah I get that. I'm SURE Myles doesn't use the gig bag when touring. 😆 But as for my use, I actually don't mind it that much. It works well enough for what I need and takes up less space.
That is cool, but as a brass man, I know Jack about strings. I play a 1959 Martin Committe trumpet. That was a good horn. I have zero input other than find THE instrument that meets your needs and desires, then tell the world to kiss your backside.
I usually never mention weight since that varies a lot. I don’t know what size frets. They don’t mention that on the PRS website. But they seemed middle-of-the-road for size.
I'm not sure, but I would assume they would sound pretty different. I compare it to my tele in the video. Though the pickups on mine are different than Suhr's, they're probably more similar than the pickups in the Myles Kennedy.
You are paying a small fortune for.this guitar and PRS couldn't be bothered to include a hard case. Geez! Greedy much. Great review and the guitar is great but the value isn't there for me or many people.
👍the fender American pro 2 comes with a nice hard case, which I’ll be purchasing this January. Furthermore anyone who thinks expecting a hard case to protect a professional instrument is greedy, has no business owning a real instrument.
I play the guitar every couple of minutes. I play through all the switches and sounds, clean and overdriven. Do me a favor. When you comment, watch the video first.
